what about this list... can this list talk about 'old' music? well, we already know the answer to that, considering the discussion of michael jackson and the fact that we are talking about lexaunculpt here. i just wanted to say that this list does tend towards an aversion of the old in favor of tomorrow's release, always tomorrow's release... sort of like video games. hmm... -adam -- Adam Piontek [http://www.tcinternet.net/users/damek/] ICQ: 3456339 [damek@earthling.net] ...
